Darla Jaros, author of "The Kitchen Assistant" Cookbook, developed her kitchen skills and cooking talents in the 1980's while raising three children under the age of five as a single mom. Thanks to those lean years, and a Polish grandmother who never threw anything away, she learned how to stretch a dollar and literally make a meal out of seemingly nothing in her kitchen. In her workshops, she teaches you how to do the same so you can save time & money in your kitchen too!

You will learn:*Which groceries to buy and how to make smart choices at the grocery store without clipping coupons and save money each month on your grocery bill.

*Which staples to keep handy to make a 'something out of nothing' meal and spend about $100.00 a month of budgeted grocery money to feed a family of four- if that's all you can afford.

*How to create a budget in the kitchen, and make healthy, tasty, inexpensive meals for your family, saving money that can be spent on vacations, school clothes, car payments, or other household or personal espenses.

*Easy recipes that use these staple foods to make a healthy, hearty meal for your family when the cupboards and fridge seem bare that will not only save you money, but time in the kitchen too.

*Easy kitchen techniques and tips to store foods to maximize their shelf life and your money.

*How to make your own condiments; fun craft projects for the kids; how to make extra 'dough' ($-money) with play dough, and more!-using basic food items that help will help you save money, kitchen prep time and create some great memories with your family too!
